An America250 event! Askin's People at Michilimackinac will explore the lives of the free and enslaved people who worked for the merchant John Askin at Michilimackinac in the 1770s. Join the interpretive staff at Michilimackinac as they demonstrate the various work performed by Askin's employees, who included sailors, bakers, gardeners, cooks, voyageurs, laundresses, and more.
